Khashoggi was a legal permanent resident of the US.
Work visa only.

Nope, he was in the USA on a work visa.
Didn't realize that. That definitely makes it our business.
But it's also our business because countries don't murder someone in their embassy. It wasn't our embassy, but it is in our interest to strongly discourage that behavior. Just like it's in our interest to discourage Russia from killing people in Britain.
It's our business, because anytime the Press is suppressed, it's bad news for the world. Just wish we would get the DNC's claws off our own press.
I don't know if he was a good guy or a bad guy. There's an article that was just posted that says he was in favor of the Muslim Brotherhood. He might have been a bad guy. But there's lots of bad guys in the press and we don't murder them, much less in our embassy.
On the other hand, the Saudi Prince seems to be bringing some positive reforms to Saudi Arabia. I say we stop short of trying to get him to step down.
He wasn’t a US citen.
"Friends helped Khashoggi obtain a visa that allowed him to stay in the United States as a permanent resident. [Barnett] Rubin [senior fellow at New York University’s Center on International Cooperation wrote a letter to the Department of Homeland Security] recalling his first meeting back in 1989 and attesting to his “character, intellect, knowledge, political perspective and work as a journalist.”
I believe he got the visa in 2017. I'd like to know who approved it...probably some member of the Clinton swamp.
